    If you're using iTunes 11, you don't need iTunes Match to listen your purchased songs from iCloud. You only have to login with your Apple ID in iTunes Store and delete your music from the Mac, so you'll see all your purchased music in the iTunes Store without downloading it to your Mac

    And any music that did not come from the iTunes Store will be gone. Your idea to use iTunes Match is better (unless every tune you have was bought from the iTunes Store).

     

    Ooops, this is for the OP
